Love the very convenient location right in the middle of Via Etnea, walking distances to most of the major attractions. Front Office is warm and very helpful in providing us with information and map upon checking in. Room was great and very comfortable. We were an hour early for check-in, and the room we booked wasn't available then. Instead, we got a surprise to be able to check-in into a bigger room. Breakfast is fabulous with lots of choices. Highly recommended.
The property is right opposite the Rinascente departmental store. Before careful if you are claiming VAT refund. My tax refund of over 200 euros was disallowed as the tax refund form prepared by them deliberately omitted the last digit of my passport number.

The location of the hotel is great - right on the hottest street of Catania downtown.
The front desk staffs are very polite and friendly, especially the lady on duty on the day when we checked in (2 Jan 23). She introduced everything to us and led us to the room personally!
I love this hotel, would definitely recommend it to all tourists.

The hotel I booked on Ctrip is perfect and I am very satisfied with it. There is a pedestrian street right outside the door, with all kinds of exquisite shops and large supermarkets, suitable for all kinds of people. The only regret is that the bar on the top floor of the hotel is only open at night and cannot be entered at will. Even if you are a hotel customer, there is no saying that customers are God here. Consumption and money are more important.
